Canadian politics explained

Unless you’re Canadian, you may not fully appreciate this video. Rick Mercer is Canada’s answer to the USA’s Jon Stewart and Dennis Leary. He’s a brilliant political commentator and like Jon Stewart, actually asks the types of questions that the “real media” should be asking and taking politicians to task. This was on his “Rick Mercer Report” at the beginning of February after several weeks of downright silliness in Canadian federal politics. And really, no matter what country you’re in, an explanation which cuts through the crap is always welcome.
